Teaching Literacy Strategies in Math

摘要: This study sought to dete _ rmine the effectiveness of incorporating literacy strategies during math instruction. In distinct lessons, a class sixteen students was given instruction in using key words, visualization, and graphic organizers solve word problems. The rated difficulty problems on scale "too easy", 'just right", hard" both before after reading strategy lessons assess if use t�e changed their perception. test-retest with equivalent forms method estimating reliability used give measure stability equivalence. A matched pair analysis t test significance performed determine there significant correlation between pre-test post-test comprehension for solving Triangulation data establish validity results. Each student's independently assessed level examined relationship proficiency results mathematics assessment.
